Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Speaking of this, she said again: "And only you and Lan Wu have conflicts here. When we were in the Hall of Supreme Harmony just now, only Lan Wu and Princess Li had a quarrel. Do you blame Lan Wu for cursing your child before running away?" Come and kill her with an ax?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone stared at Chu Xuanchen in disbelief, and Yun Ruoyue also looked anxious.

She hurriedly said: "Empress, it is absolutely impossible. Xuan Chen is not this kind of person. He will never be so stupid as to kill people in the palace and let you catch him. With his character, it is even more impossible for him to do such a thing. There must be a conspiracy in it!"

The queen said coldly, "Why is that impossible? King Li has always defended you. He thought Lan Wu was bullying you, so he killed Lan Wu just to vent your anger for you. He is the only one here who has the motive for killing, and he is the only one beside the corpse, not him. Who else could it be?"

Chu Xuanchen raised his eyes, and said calmly: "Empress, if I really want to kill someone, I don't need to do it myself. I was lured here, and the real culprit must be someone else. Go far away, and ask the emperor to order a search as soon as possible, so as not to let the real murderer escape!"

At this time, Concubine Xue looked at Emperor Hongyuan, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I also think that King Li is not this kind of person. He is very powerful in martial arts, and can kill enemies invisible on the battlefield, so how can he use a weapon like an ax to chop Wouldn’t it be superfluous to kill Concubine Lan? Furthermore, as King Li said, he has many people under him. If he really hates Concubine Lan, he can order others to do it instead of taking the risk himself. Will there be a misunderstanding?"

"Concubine Xue, the evidence is solid and you still speak for Li Wang? You are not familiar with Li Wang, do you think he is young and handsome, so you speak for him regardless of black and white?" The queen said angrily.

Concubine Xue lowered her head hurriedly and said: "No concubine, concubine doesn't mean that, concubine just doesn't want the emperor to lose the talent of King Li."

After hearing what the queen said, Emperor Hongyuan looked at Chu Xuanchen coldly.

Chu Xuanchen was tall, handsome, young and handsome, and indeed more attractive than this old man.

He glanced at Chu Xuanchen jealously, and then looked at Concubine Xue warningly. Concubine Xue quickly lowered her head and put on an obedient expression.

Seeing this, he withdrew his gaze, looked deeply at Chu Xuanchen, and said, "Xuanchen, I don't believe that you will kill someone, but now you are the only suspect, and I must thoroughly investigate. As the king of a country, Lan Wu must be given justice!"

The queen hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there are all the witnesses and evidences, so what else to investigate? Lan Wu was killed by King Li, and he is the real murderer."

Prince Rui also stepped forward, and said unhurriedly: "Royal father, I don't believe that brother Huang would do such a thing. But Lan Wu died too badly, this matter concerns the reputation of the royal family of Chu State. Big brother brother Although he has made great achievements in battle, if he is the real murderer, please treat him equally, and not let him be lightly spared because of his status, otherwise it will affect your prestige, father."

Hearing Prince Rui's words, Chu Xuanchen glanced coldly at Prince Rui, his eyes were extremely cold.

At this time, Yun Ruoyue said: "Your Majesty, can you let my niece and daughter-in-law see Lan Wu's body?"

"What's the use of watching? Could it be that if you read it, you can get rid of King Li's crime?" The queen said coldly.

Emperor Hongyuan said: "Okay! Empress, let Ruoyue go and see! I also hope to find out, I will not wrong anyone, and I will not let the real murderer go!"
